Michael Lohan Speaks for Jon Gosselin

Talk about the douche leading the douchier. Michael Lohan and Jon Gosselin are the latest BFF pairing to hit Long Island. The two can’t seem to get enough of each other, shopping in the Hamptons, walking along the beach. This is a reality show in and of itself!

Michael is probably thanking his lucky stars that he befriended Jon Gosselin, since it only means more publicity for himself! As we all know, Michael loves to talk, especially about himself. But now, with Jon in tow, he’s taken on the role of his publicist, explaining Jon's situation to People magazine.

Michael tells the mag that all Jon wants is to be friends with Kate. He says, "He would love to be friends with her. They had eight kids and he would like to work things out the right way and just be friends."

Michael also says Jon is in a great place right now, saying, "He's fantastic and upbeat and said that he just wanted to concentrate on his kids and his career and his life. It's overwhelming for him but he's handling it."

As for Jon’s future, Michael says, "A lot of opportunities are opening up for him.”

Michael also claims that despite Jon telling Us Weekly that his “heart is always with Hailey,” that he’s in fact single! Michael tells People, "He's not with either one right now. He's not concentrating on a relationship with any woman. He just wants to take a step back and deal with his family and his kids."

Our question is, who would ever let Michael Lohan of all people speak on their behalf?!! Jon is learning the hard way that this kind of fame isn’t always a positive thing. Look at the Octomom...she was the hot tabloid subject for a few weeks running, and now she’s been forgotton almost as quickly as she became famous. You’re next, Jon Gosselin!
